liberals did not get elected and reelected in conservative midwestern states. liberals did not throughout their life take on unpopular causes particularly in recent years. and most of all liberals did not fly dangerous bomber missions in defense of our nation. this made his many critics who avoided military service especially uncomfortable. somewhere in some small town in this great land is a young man or a young woman who will learn of george mcgovern and his voice. someday, that young man or woman, drawn to action by his life as a voice of conscience will rise up to call america home, to summon "the better angels of our nature," to confront us with poverty, injustice and inequality, and to challenge us to live up to our constitutional promise. george mcgovern's voice is not going. it is simply waiting new voices of conscience that have the courage of their conviction. [applause] >> good afternoon. my name is karen one. i'm susan -- my name is karen one. i am george his son-in-law. and i was his baseball pal. he asked me any number of times to say a few words

and not because they have fired a single shot, not a single shot, but because of election, elections that have empowered people in their own country. so in afghanistan, in iraq, in turkey, in egypt, in gaza, in tunisia and lebanon, iran is dealing with governments today, not just compared to 10 years ago but compared to two years ago that are no longer reflective lake pro-american or anti-iranian. that is a huge boost to iran's strategic position, no matter how you look at it. still, some commentators argue that the sanctions and the arab awakening somehow will force the islamic republic to make concessions that the united states and israel has demanded of it. the main flaw with this argument isn't even the iraqi sample that sanctions and isolation never led to any change in iraq is decision-making, it's not even the fact that there is no basis in history of the islamic republic for making any kind of concessions of these sorts. the main flaw is that would put forward as evidence of imminent iranian concession is not new. unlike others in the middle of these of the islamic republic,

my views are consistent with the people of missouri, and i believe that they will re-elect -- elect me to the u.s. congress. .. moved akin: i think the approach we should take on energy is have a energy policy. i think energy sources should compete with each other. and the approach that we've been taking, obviously doesn't work. and in terms wind, i'm happy to compete with solar cells, compete with coal, oil, gas, nuclear let the different sources of energies work on their own. now the fact is that we really haven't been developing energy the way we should. if you think about america, it's amazing. we have unlimited supply of coal, natural gas, and oil. while we're sitting on the resources yet we haven't developed them why. the reason because of big government. all kinds of rules and regulations that don't allow us to do what we should be doing. what is the cost? the gasoline prices have doubled. if we continue with the policy to shut down the coal petroleums as barack obama told us he's going do and clare gave them the -- so what we have to do is to take the blessings we have in ameri

i have a firm view about the coming election. we can talk about that later in q&a, but that's a personal opinion. it's like talking about abortion. a lot of people with different opinions. i'm very concerned about the huge buildup of federal debt. the commonsense observation of the nation was founded in 177,616,000,000,000,000 federal debt. we went from 2012 to 16 trillion. the up by a trillion dollars a year. it's unsustainable. we have to do with this. the commission some symbols came up with credible ideas, but would do nothing with them. unless we move in this area, it's going to be a significant issue. and while were not greece, we could have similar type problems. not to the same degree of freedom of sergio with problems as you can see this happening to debt relative to the size of the economy. that's the problem. lastly, there's huge legislated tax increases on the horizon, not particularly friendly towards capital formation. the current tax rate dividends are% out i guess you can see right there 15 f. obama has this way,
